2 Samuel 19:11-15
11Then King David sent word to 1Zadok and Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the word of all Israel has come to the king, even to his house? 12You are my brothers; 2you are my bone and my flesh. Why then should you be the last to bring back the king?’ 13And say to 3Amasa, ‘Are you not my bone and my flesh? 4May God do so to me, and more so, if you will not be 5commander of the army 6for me continually, 7in place of Joab.’” 14So he turned the hearts of all the men of Judah 8as one man, so that they sent word to the king, saying, “Return, you and all your servants.” 15The king then returned and came as far as the Jordan. And the men of Judah came to 9Gilgal in order to go to meet the king, to escort the king across the Jordan.
